Rough Road Ahead For Green Golfers
KU golfers will be plagued by a lack of experience and stiff competition this spring, but golf coach Jay Markley is meeting the problem head-on.
Markley, who is in his second year as head mentor, explained that not one of the top four players from last year's squad will return. Of the 16 linksmen competing for the top five slots on the team, only one of the Hawker golfers, Dick Haitrink, Salina junior, is a returning letterman.
Markley says leading contenders for the remaining top four spots on the team are John Hanna and Paul Carlson, Lawrence sophomores, David Gray, Lawrence senior, and Reid Holbrook, Kansas City sophomore.
Markley feels that Oklahoma State and Oklahoma will dominate the Big Eight golf links this spring.
"Hanna," Markley said, "shows a lot of ability. He has shot a 68 (four below par) on the Lawrence Country Club course."
KU will open the golf season squaring off against these two powerhouses in the Oklahoma Invitational Golf Tournament at Norman, April 6-7.
To meet the challenge from the South, Markley is embarking on a new training program. In past years, he explained, the players could train in whatever way they chose; the golfers had no exact schedule to practice.

But Markley said the procedure has changed this year, and the players are now required to practice so many hours a day and to turn in qualifying scores.
"I am only interested," he said, "in those boys who show a great deal of desire and really want to take golf seriously."

KU Network Director Named 'Sportscaster of the Year'
Tom Hedrick, director of the KU Sports Network, was recently named the state's "sportscaster of the year" by Kansas radio and newspaper men for the second consecutive year.
Hedrick, believed to be one of the youngest recipients of this award in his field, is in his second year as head of the KU network.
Hedrick said he was fortunate to have been selected for the second straight year by his contemporaries for the honor, and added:
"In my opinion, an award of this type means more to a person when his associates give him their support.
"I also feel," he said, "that this would not have happened had I not been aided by our coaches, had the complete cooperation of the Kansas broadcasters, and followed KU football and basketball all the wav."
A timer at a track meet starts his watch when he sees the smoke from the starter's gun. Because of the comparative slowness of sound, the report from the gun does not provide an accurate starting signal.
He Watch'em Smoke
The award is given annually by the National Association of Sportscasters and Sportswriters of Salisbury, N.C.
The winner of the award is determined by the votes of the sportscasters of every radio station in Kansas.
